Thanks guys. I haven't thought about a prop guard. I will have to research them and have a look.Cheers

Where I work they use Safety boats & QHM (QUEENS HARBOUR MASTER) also use them and they all use prop guards on this type of boat.

Hope u don't think im sticking my nose in it was just a thought.

This is the type used by them after some one lost there leg while being rescued.
